The free Rate Pulse shows every brand at 38 airports, for 3-day hires picked up over the next 14 days. That's the market. Your own Rate Pulse is the same engine pointed at your business: your branches, the competitors you actually lose bookings to, and the dates you're selling now.
The free benchmark view. Your own Rate Pulse uses the same view for your branches and the competitors you name.
What you get
Your branches. Airport and downtown, in any city with public rental search results, not only the 38 on the free site.
The competitors you name. Five to ten brands you watch, compared car type by car type, every day.
The hire lengths you sell. 1, 3 and 7 days by default, or whatever matches your bookings.
Further ahead. Up to 90 pick-up days, so you see a gap opening weeks out, not days.
An alert when someone moves. An email the morning a named competitor changes a car type by more than the threshold you set, with the before and after.
A daily CSV for your own spreadsheet or BI tool, if you want it.

Where it leads
Once you're watching the market every day, the next question is usually what to charge. That's where our revenue management work comes in: forecasting your own demand, recommending rates with a reason for each, and connecting your booking system so it runs without anyone copying numbers across.
Questions
How is it different from the free dashboard?
The free dashboard is one shared view per airport: 3-day hires, 14 days ahead, every brand. Your own Rate Pulse is set up for your brand: your branches, including ones away from the airport, the competitors you care about, the hire lengths you sell and up to 90 days ahead, with an alert when a competitor moves.
What does it cost?
From NZ$290 a month plus GST for your first location and NZ$150 for each one after that. Setup is included. Month to month, cancel any time.
Do I need to install anything?
No. You get a private link and the alerts by email. If you'd rather have the data in your own spreadsheet or BI tool, we send a daily CSV.
Can it use my own bookings?
Yes, as a next step. Connecting your booking system lets us show your pace and utilisation next to the market, and recommend rates. That's our consulting work, scoped separately.
When checking competitor rates by hand is enough, when it breaks, and how to make either way reliable. With real offer counts and a check log template.
